 We have a strong and committed staff with many years of experience satisfying our customers' needs. Happy employees make happy customers, and we reward individuals who are ready to work hard and stay motivated. Every employee at May’s Fleet Sales and Service is critical to its success.

May’s Fleet Sales and Service is proud to have serviced vehicles and equipment for our customers for more than twenty-five years.

Our friendly, knowledgeable staff all have the same goal; to create a long-term working relationship with a positive and cost-effective experience at each visit.

In early 2020, May’s Fleet Sales and Service was acquired by Syracuse Truck and Equipment when the founder, Gary May, decided to retire to spend more time with his family.  Syracuse Truck’s roots go back nearly twenty years and began in the heavy construction equipment industry.  As the service demands of medium and heavy-duty trucks grew, construction equipment became less and less a part of the business. That continued growth in demand led Syracuse Truck to look for a new location to accommodate the growing service business. May’s was a natural fit.  With similar philosophies of providing great customer service and a friendly, helpful atmosphere, a new chapter began.  Syracuse Truck continues to operate under May’s Fleet Sales and Service name with the same great staff and serving the same great customers.
